...The Big Business of Dairy Farming : Big Trouble for Cows June 11, 2007
Most people are aware that dairies in the United States bear little resemblance to the idyllic pastures of yesteryear. As with other branches of animal agriculture, such as chicken and egg production, hog farming, and beef production as well as crop growing small, traditional dairy farms have been steadily pushed out of the business by large agribusiness concerns. Since the mid-20th century, the growth of factory farming has led to the transformation of agriculture, forcing small farmers to œget big or get out. Small farms cannot compete with big agricultural firms because they cannot achieve the same economies of scale.
The American dairy industry annually produces about 20 billion gallons of raw milk, which is processed and sold as butter, cheese, ice cream, and fluid milk. This amounts to about INR 1,739.31 billion in sales each year. There are between 65,000 and 81,000 U.S. dairies, yet corporate consolidation means that about half of the milk sold comes from just under 4 percent of the farms. While the large number of brands and labels on store shelves would seem to indicate a diversity of sources, in reality many of these brands are owned by a handful of large corporations. For example, the countrys largest dairy producer, Dean Foods, owns 40 or so brands, 3 of them representing organic milk.

Some animals that are raised by subsistence farmers are chickens, goats, and pigs. Plants grown by these farmers are tomatoes, peppers, pigeon peas, limes, bananas etc. There are two types of methods used in subsistence farming and they are the slash and burn technique and pothole farming.
Slash and Burn Method
* Using cutlasses a diminutive area of dense natural vegetation is cleared. The thickness of the natural growth tells the farmer that the soil and water supply is probably good. The plants cut down to stubble, with only larger trees remaining. The remains, is spread equally all over the plot, left to dry, and is then burnt. The ash adds nutrients to the soil. Ash adds potassium to the soil, a mineral needed by plants. Crops are planted in the ash-enriched soil.
Although the burning enriches the soil, it has some detrimental effects. The burning kills any organisms in the topsoil....
